| They are frequently encountered at Bunnings in the warmer weather. Unfortunately all they seem to have at my local stores at the moment is a bunch of sick-looking, chronically overwatered mamms.  |

| i always forget to check ebay.
aight cool. cheers dudes.
lachy - i find the the cacti at bunnings always look unhealthy. i used to work at a bunnings and they turn those sprinklers on heaps often so the cacti would be getting really crazy levels of water. |

That's why they have problems with fungus gnats! When will they learn?

The secret, of course, is to check back often and buy any plants that take your fancy before they drown them.  |
